Study Notes
Historical Development of Comparative Linguistics
- The science of linguistic comparison developed slowly, influenced by four periods:
- 1st period: suffixes of reflexivity, reciprocity, causation, modality, comparativeness, etc.
- 2nd period: development of comparative historical linguistics and genealogical and typological classification of languages (mid-XIX century)
- 3rd period: development of comparative historical linguistics (mid-XIX century)
- 4th period: establishment of Comparative Typology as a separate science (XX century)
Factors in the Development of Comparative Typology
- Three factors contributed to the development of Comparative Typology:
- Typological imitation: using identified styles or forms of languages to explain another language
- Appearance of scientific comparative works: comparisons of languages and linguistic units dating back to ancient times
- Study of unknown languages and languages without a writing system
Contributions to Comparative Typology
- Varron's "De Lingua Latina" (117-27 ВС): adapted Greek language grammars, changing 5 cases in Greek to 6 and 8 parts of speech to 7 in English
- Port Royal Grammar: analyzed similarities and differences between French, Latin, Greek, and ancient Jewish languages, revealing the unique features of ancient Jewish language
Tasks of Comparative Typology
- Comparative investigations of language aspects: phonetics, phonology, morphology, syntax, lexicon, and phraseology
- Categorization in linguistics
- Investigations in Comparative Stylistics and Lexicology
- Language and intercultural communication
- Revealing national-cultural features of related and non-related languages
- Correlation and integration of semantics, word-building, syntax, stylistics, and functional semantics in typological aspect
